Rumaan Alam's Entitlement is the story of one woman's desire to make a difference, save the world, be good, feel like she's worth it, and also, yet very much also, be financially comfortable. Alam always addresses race and privilege in his books but in the most subtle and sophisticated ways. I read the last half of Entitlement covering my eyes, barely able to witness choices Brooke makes while working for an octogenarian billionaire trying to give away his fortune before his death. This is a compelling story that doesn't tie up neatly at the end.
